[virt-tools-list] virt-install via iso

2010-12-16 Thread (*^__^*)
hi all
I'm installing guestos on RHEL6,no X,so i connect with putty. My cli 
command is
 virt-install --name=node2 --arch=x86_64 --vcpus=2 --ram=1024 --os-type=linux 
--os-variant=rhel4 --hvm --connect=qemu:///system --network bridge:virbr0 
--cdrom=/tmp/RHEL4-U4-X64-dvd.iso --disk path=/dev/mapper/vm-node3 --accelerate 
 --keymap=es  --nographics --extra-args='text console=tty0 utf8 
console=ttyS0,115200 method=cdrom'
 It can't open console,but when i install it with cli
 virt-install -n node1 -r 1024 -f /dev/mapper/vm-node1 -s 20 --vcpus=2 
--os-type linux --os-variant=rhel4 --network bridge=virbr0 --nographics 
--location=http://10.0.52.82:8000/rhel4 --extra-args='console=tty0 
console=ttyS0,115200n8' 
It runs OK!

Re: [virt-tools-list] Default video model for Windows XP guests

 Hi,
 
 9 months ago default video model for Windows guests had been changed to vga 
 (see http://hg.fedorahosted.org/hg/python-virtinst/rev/07fa54fea9d5).
 
 Windows Server 2003 and Windows 7 seems to work fine with that video model, 
 but 
 Windows XP doesn't recognize it. It always ask for a driver, however cirrus 
 video model works fine with Windows XP.
 
 Perhaps we should go back to cirrus as default video model for Windows XP 
 (see attached patch) ?
 

The main motivation for using vga over cirrus is that vga allows much
higher screen resolutions. cirrus is stuck at 1024x768

I just tried with winxp pro sp3, and while the listing in 'device
manager' has '?' next to it, everything seems to work quite fine, and
higher resolutions can be set. Are you seeing differently? If not, I
think we should stick with vga.
